What are the applications of a Network Engineer

 Technology continues to change and improve, evolving faster and faster as it advances. Along with it, careers in the information technology industry also continue to grow. As a network engineer, you will be in the heart of the technological realm. You will have a wide range of duties that include designing, building, and maintaining computer networks for the organization you work for. These networks also vary widely – from a simple system that you can handle alone to a complicated system of LANs, WANs, intranets, and extranets that it takes a whole IT team to manage.


There are a variety of fantastic reasons to become a network engineer including great pay, reputable companies to work for, and working with some of the most advanced technology available. While being a network engineer can be demanding work, you’ll find that the work is satisfying and that the benefits far outweigh any drawbacks.

Bridging Network importance in cyber operations

  There are several ways to hook up individual computers into a network. One is to use hardware routers to link up the network segments. If you buy hardware bridges, those will also connect the computers with each other. In Windows XP, simply clicking the "Bridge Connections" icon joins parts of a network together, even if the parts use different media to link their segments. Advantages Using a router or a hardware bridge requires buying more equipment to connect your computers. With a wireless router, each computer and network segment needs its own Internet Protocol (IP) address in order to direct data to the right computer. Both methods may require an IT professional or experienced amateur to connect everything properly. With Windows XP, building a bridging connection requires just a few clicks of your mouse in the right places. Bridging To make a bridge, you must log in as an administrator on your network or your computer. Click the computer's "Control Panel,"

Open Systems Interconnection

Different communication requirements necessitate different network solutions, and these different network protocols can create significant problems of compatibility when networks are interconnected with one another. In order to overcome some of these interconnection problems, the open systems interconnection (OSI) was approved in 1983 as an international standard for communications architecture by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (CCITT). The OSI model, as shown in the figure, consists of seven layers, each of which is selected to perform a well-defined function at a different level of abstraction. The bottom three layers provide for the timely and correct transfer of data, and the top four ensure that arriving data are recognizable and useful. While all seven layers are usually necessary at each user location, only the bottom three are normally employed at a network node, since nodes are conc

How to Improve your Windows Deployment Strategy

  Computers in the enterprise world require being up-to-date. This means IT teams need to be able to have a solid OS deployment plan for all the employees. With so many scenarios, it’s important that the plan be flexible as well as functional. Luckily, Microsoft offers many options of deployment to help cater for the wide range of scenarios. This post will briefly discuss the comparison between some of traditional deployment methods: WDS, MDT, SCCM. WDS Windows Deployment Services is a feature installed on Windows Server OS that gives the capability to push a Windows OS image to a computer. It’s a good foundation to have set up to start your deployment methods. This option has the quickest initial setup to get up and running but does require more manual configuration when it comes to building the OS image to your liking. MDT Microsoft Deployment Toolkit takes WDS take it to one big step further from WDS. It actually requires WDS to work but implements Lite Touch Installation. This woul
